Letters: What comes next after Glenn Dale closes? More from readers

Glenn Dale golf

Good for the Shields family that the Glenn Dale Golf Club was able to sustain them for 61 years and provide county golfers with enjoyable times. (The Capital, Sept. 3).

For the record, I have nothing against golf, though I am not a player. I even follow the exploits of Tiger Woods and, for a reason I’ve long forgotten, John Daly — though I have serious issues with the guy in the White House they on occasion play a round with.

But I wonder, now that some 271 homes are scheduled to be built on the old course in Bowie, what will be done to mitigate the possible health consequences to future residents of decades of toxic pesticides and herbicides that may have been dumped on the greens? (See, beyondpesticides.org)

Sorry. Just trying to connect the dots. We need to do more of that.

Impeach the president

Article II, Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution says, in part “The President ... shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.”

If Section 4 isn’t in the Constitution for the likes of President Donald Trump, then why is it in there? He’s lied over 10,000 times since taking office. He puts Russian President Vladimir Putin above the U.S. intelligence agencies.

He’s the biggest narcissist I’ve ever seen. He’s a bully. He’s a racist to his core. He’s filling the swamp, not draining it. He’s cutting off medical services to migrants. He cages those who are legally seeking asylum. He colluded with Russia to “win” the 2016 election in the Electoral College even though he lost the popular vote by 3 million.

Special Prosecutor Robert Mueller found 10 instances of Trump trying to obstruct justice during the former’s investigation of the latter. Trump hired U.S. Attorney William Barr to be his “Roy Cohen” — to lie and obfuscate for Trump. Trump’s violated the emoluments clause numerous times. And so many more examples of why he should be impeached.It’s time to stop giving lip service to the phrase “no man is above the law.”

It’s time to prove the paper stuck on Trump’s shoe as he walked up to Air Force 1 was not our Constitution.
